The ELO here seems propped up by sheer duel count more than actual quality, a lot of these matchups feel automatic at this point.

About Max Payne
Max Payne is a man with nothing to lose in the violent, cold urban night. A fugitive undercover cop framed for murder, hunted by cops and the mob, Max is a man with his back against the wall, fighting a battle he cannot hope to win. Max Payne is a relentless story-driven game about a man on the edge, fighting to clear his name while struggling to uncover the truth about his slain family amongst a myriad of plot-twists and twisted thugs in the gritty bowels of New York during the century's worst blizzard.
The groundbreaking original cinematic action-shooter, Max Payne introduced the concept of Bullet Time in videogames. Through its stylish slow-motion gunplay combined with a dark and twisted story, Max Payne redefined the action-shooter genre.

Automatiques les duels, vraiment ? Ou alors c'est juste qu'il gagne encore contre des jeux qui paraissent plus modernes.

Mais du coup, tu proposes quoi comme place plus juste pour lui ?

Compared to Mass Effect's dialogue trees, this has none, or rather it has none by design and that's the point.
PixelSamurai
Le côté sans compromis du dialogue tient justement à cette absence de choix, ça colle parfaitement au personnage.

Le ratio de victoires reste stable depuis longtemps, ce qui veut dire que ceux qui votent pour lui le font en connaissance de cause, pas par nostalgie aveugle
SilviaAce
No sé si estoy de acuerdo del todo, me parece que un ratio estable también puede significar que la gente vota por costumbre, sin pensarlo tanto

L'écriture reste solide, le ton noir fonctionne encore bien. Le level design de certains passages tire un peu en longueur par endroits.

L'ambiance sonore et visuelle tient encore très bien aujourd'hui, franchement, c'est ce qui frappe le plus en y rejouant. La rigidité de certains déplacements se sent quand même par moments, surtout dans les phases de couverture improvisées.
ThéophileSamurai
La rigidité existe, mais elle ne gâche jamais vraiment l'expérience.
